If you love that style of gritty, garage, 80's mecha anime, this lost, unpolished gem might be right up your alley.
It's clear that they only had the production budget for a short one-shot, so the story seems to be very condensed. Still, I love this kind of stuff.
The live-action opening breaks the animation fourth wall, but years later it still sticks in my mind.

In similar fashion to "Do You Remember Love?", and several other anime movie adaptations, they ramped certain things up to 11; but in the shorter format, lost a lot of the plot and character development. All the subtlety is gone, and I'm not wild about the changes to the story.
It's cool on its own, but I think the original is much better. |
